The two big ones are both 12 pin transmitter connectors - one from the 
274N series with the triangular configuration in the center pins, and 
one from the ARC-5 modulator connector, with the rectangular 
configuration on the four pins near the center.  Not much help there.  
The smaller one is 8 pin, like the receiver rack connector to the 
control boxes.

You're gonna force me to open it up and take a picture, aren't you?  :-)
